Chicken Stock is one of those ubiquitous bases for soups, sauces, stew, and more. Chicken stock is different from chicken broth. Both are made with chicken, but stock is made from bones, which gives it a richer flavor. Broth is made more out of meat. How nice is it to have homemade stock on hand. Grapefruit Marmalade. If you enjoy marmalade you will love this sweet and tart combo. For our meal, we will have egg plant parmesan and a salad. For dessert we will have fruit crisp.

When I’m teaching a class I’m asked one question quite a bit; how should I use this jar? Well, when it comes to Marmalade there are many ways to use that jar. I know a lot of you are canning away with citrus. So here are a few ideas of what to do with those jars.

Marmalade works well when spread on roasted chicken or turkey to create a simple, sweet glaze. I like using my Meyer Lemon Rosemary marmalade for this one.

Pork Loin: Instead of using a chutney on your pork try some marmalade. I like using my Red Onion Marmalade for this one.

Rice and grains can be so boring, so add somemarmalade. It adds a little hint of sweetness and interesting texture. My Orange Marmalade is great for this one.

Wake up the most common vinaigrettes with a dollop of marmalade. I use my Orange Red Wine Marmalade for this.

Use it to dress up an Appetizer Plate.Crackers, cheese and a good marmalade make for adelicious appetizer spread. My Ginger Zucchini Marmalade is perfect here.

Make a glaze for Salmon. Just add a little soy sauce with the marmalade. I like using my Grapefruit Marmalade.

If you makeflatbread-type pizzas at home, try marmalade, blue cheese and prosciutto next time. All In A Jar’s Meyer Lemon Cranberry marmalade is excellent for this dish.

How about a grilled cheese sandwich with brie cheese? My Apricot Marmalade is delicious on these sandwiches.

You can use it to bake with too. I have put it in breads and muffins. The other day I made corn bread muffins with my Meyer Lemon Rosemary Marmalade. I put 1/4 cup marmalade in the muffins and made a glaze for the top of the muffin. They must have been great. I only got one. My husband is the suspect here.

I bet you didn’t know there were so many different kinds of marmalade.

Ever since I planted my fig tree I have been dreaming about home-made Fig Newtons. Doesn’t that sound delicious. Well the fig tree is packed with figs. So my dream is about to come true. I have looked up many recipes and have come up with my own. Yes, I’m making my way. LOL For the next upcoming class here at “The Farm ” July 21st we will be making a fig jam that will turn into fig newtons. My red onions are ready to be created into something fabulous. How about some Red Onion Marmalade. This marmalade is wonderful as an appetizer with some cheese and crunchy French bread. It is great on a pork chop too.

This class will start with a snack from All In A Jar’s pantry. We will make the two recipes and fig newtons for our dessert. For lunch we will have a Thai Slaw. You will go home with a jar from each recipe and the printed out recipes.

There are a few spots left in this class. I hope to have you here at “The Farm ”
